Chapter 363

Wang Qingfu sighed heavily, "It's because we're not capable enough that Fifth Brother's Wife is so cautious around us. But maybe I'm overthinking it, and the method to make money really requires going to the provincial capital.

In the future, when they go to the provincial capital, we'll be far apart, and we won't know the specific situation.

Only Fifth Brother's Wife knows what's really going on."

Wang Qingfu’s roundabout way of speaking made Wang Shoucheng fall silent for a moment.

Although Second Brother's intentions were already clear, he had a point too. If only they went to the provincial capital, they might not think about sharing any opportunities with the rest of the family.

He had to admit, though, that Fifth Brother’s Wife was pretty resourceful.

She’s not just lucky; she somehow gets her hands on all kinds of valuable things.

Just like those formulas she had.

Moreover, from the tone of Fifth Brother's Wife, what they had now was just the beginning.

Who knows what else she’ll bring back in the future?

The life they were living now was already beyond what he could have imagined before.

We can’t let Fifth Brother’s family leave the rest of us behind in this wealth.

But he couldn’t just abandon his own responsibilities.

At this moment, Wang Shoucheng and his second son were thinking the same thing.

"Second Brother, what you said makes sense. Money is important, but the most important thing is that our family must share both the hardships and the sweetness together. If we let only Fifth Brother's family go to the provincial capital, I'm worried they might face inconveniences.

Being so far from home, if only the two of them go, I'll worry about them too.

So, if there really is a way to go to the provincial capital, I'll make sure to find a way for you as well.

Either all three of you go together, or no one goes at all.

Don't worry, I'll take charge of this matter."

Wang Shoucheng made his decision immediately.

Having gotten the result he wanted, Wang Qingfu looked moved. "Dad, I don't know what to say. Rest assured, I'll make sure our family doesn't fall apart!"

"Dad, are you all at home?"

Outside, Wang Laosan suddenly called out.

Ever since Third Brother had separated from the family, he rarely came back.

These past two days, he and his wife seemed to be doing quite well. Why did he suddenly come back now?

Wang Shoucheng glanced at his second son. "Go open the door for Third Brother. I don't feel like dealing with him."

After saying that, Wang Shoucheng turned stern-faced.

If Third Brother had come to seek reconciliation and wanted to rejoin the family to make money together, he would definitely not agree.

Unless Third Brother and his wife split up.

Wang Laosan's wife has always ignored his advice.

Now she's encouraging him to go out, and who knows what trouble she might cause in the future?

If they rat on us one day, things could get really bad.

Wang Qingfu went to the door and opened it. When he saw who Wang Laosan had brought with him, he was stunned.

"Second brother, why are you standing there? Are all the family members at home? These two are here to see you." Wang Laosan pressed him.

"Ah? Yes, they're at home. Why did you bring them here?" Wang Qingfu asked in a low voice.

"I went to the co-op to buy some salt for my wife, and I ran into these two. They saw me and asked where you live, so I brought them here.

Is that... not okay?" Wang Laosan was puzzled.

After separating from the family, he finally understood what a good life meant.

Before, when he lived with the family, he had to listen to others about what to eat, and he and his wife couldn't eat or sleep well. Although they managed to get some money, they could only secretly buy good things to enjoy at home.

How could it compare to now?

His salary plus the money he got from the family separation was enough for him and his wife to live on for a month, with a few bucks left over.

When his son grew up, he could get a raise.

These days, they could eat whatever they wanted.

He didn't have to walk on eggshells around others anymore. This life was better than anything he could have imagined.

So now, seeing this family, he was on high alert.

He was afraid they'd ask him to come back and work for them again.

"Oh, no, it's fine! It's great that you brought them. Why don't you come in for a bit?" Wang Qingfu didn't really want Wang Laosan to come in.

"No, I need to go home and deliver the salt to my wife." Wang Laosan didn't want to barge into the house either.

As soon as Wang Laosan left, Wang Qingfu quickly brought the two people inside.

"Dad, guess who's here?"

Wang Qingfu's tone could hardly hide his delight.

Wang Shoucheng could tell from the tone that it was good news and looked up. When he saw He Youde and He Quan, his face froze in surprise.

He had put on this attitude to make things difficult for Wang Laosan, but he ended up facing their whole family...

Even though everyone was on equal footing now, he still felt like he was at a disadvantage with the He family.

"What brings you here?" Wang Shoucheng asked nervously, looking at He Youde and He Quan.

He Youde, having managed his emotions on the way, was now relatively calm. He smiled and sat down. "Brother Wang, don't be nervous. I didn't come here to make things difficult for you."

I stopped by today to check on you.

Also, I wanted to update you on the boy you were raising—how he's doing now.

Just mentioning Wang Qinghe made Wang Shoucheng nervous as hell. He hadn't really taken care of him.

If they looked into it, they’d quickly see how poorly he had treated Wang Qinghe.

The He family definitely wouldn’t look kindly on him. As for He Youde... He had ruined He Youde’s plans. He Youde probably wishes he could strangle me, right?

Wang Shoucheng was still visibly tense.

He Quan, who was standing next to him, started talking about Wang Qinghe's current situation: "My grandson has really turned things around. Since he came back, his dad got him a house and set him up with a great job.

They’re even having him study Traditional Chinese Medicine, like they’re grooming him for something big.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s a real success in just a few years.

By then..."

Wang Shoucheng’s head was buzzing. How could the eldest, how could he have such great abilities?

It would be good enough if he could work at a factory in the provincial city, how could he...

"Oh, and they’re planning to send him to continue his studies. He might even end up as a manager at one of the big factories, which are connected to where you work now.

We’re here to warn you ahead of time.

Don’t let your whole family’s jobs get replaced one day without knowing what mistake you’ve made."

He Quan sighed.

Wang Shoucheng’s mind went blank when he heard this.

"This won’t work. Didn’t we have a deal? You were supposed to help us get jobs!" Wang Shoucheng was anxious.

"Sure, but you didn’t exactly hold up your end. I did what I could, but from now on, you’ll have to hope Wang Qinghe doesn’t remember all this." He Youde sneered.
